Craft Stamper – July 2019

1 Cut a journal cover, then paint both

sides with gesso. Paint the top half

with Sea Glass, then a wiggly line of

Timeless and Caribbean Sea.

2 Once thoroughly dry, drag the

VersaMark inkpad over the beach area,

sprinkle with Ancient Amber, repeat

over the sea with Fractured Ice then

heat to set.

3 On the Lumber textured white card,

paint blocks of colour using washes

of DecoArt fluid acrylics. Leave to

dry naturally so the paint pools in the

recesses.
